Polls are open Saturday across Louisiana as voters cast their ballots for the nominees in the Republican and Democrat primaries.

The polls opened at 7 a.m. Saturday and close at 8 p.m. Unlike most Louisiana elections, only registered Republicans can vote in the GOP presidential primary and only registered Democrats can vote in the Democratic primary.

Trump and Cruz made last-minute campaign stops in the state Friday, as did former President Bill Clinton, stumping for his wife.

During early-voting last week, the state's Secretary of State's Office said more than twice as many people voted early this year than the number in the 2012 presidential primary, likely because of heated contests on both sides of the aisle.
